Inherited estate - how to make money on house

[Cindy Margheim]

Hello. My 3 siblings and I inherited my mom's house after she passed away in 2008. I have it as a rental and receiving $1,500 in monthly rental payments. After the property management company takes their 8% fee ($120) we get $1,380 to cover the $1,377 mortgage. The house is in a trust with all the siblings names on it.

I am trying to refinance and get it out from the original loan at 5.35% interest. The goal is to lower our mortgage payment to gain a better cash flow. Right now, we have no cash flow.

1. Anyone know what financial institutions will help refinance a house under a trust?

2. What ideas do you all have to increase the cash flow of this house?

So grateful to have this site! Thank you everyone!

you need to sell. You are going backwards if anything at all goes wrong with the property or the renter.
